Suckerberg is a genius of sorts.

He is in a (non-oath) hearing before the HOR's in DC.

I don't use Facebook, but my spouse does, and my Nor'east son does. His first name same as mine. I used to get many 'book notes before I switched to another email account.

Much of what is going on is for political reasons. BTW: I read that there may be several reps who own stock in the 'book!

Funny that while many are babbling about Facebook, they fail to think of the vast numbers of other companies who collect and market our private information. Been going on for years before FB came along and did it on a huge scale. What does Amazon, PayPal, your phone company, electric supplier, you name it, do with our bits and pieces of information? Learn about "Big Data" and FB is just another vendor. Go out online and check the voter registration data free for the taking. We've all known for some time that phones, email and anything online is fair game for those who want our info.

Hopefully that is not the message IO conveyed, but rather presenting a smattering of reality to reflect upon. I have heard of no mention of similar contributors for the dissemination of our info for profit.
